2026 NFL Draft Preview
The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to select Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza at No. 1 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft, and then from there, it’s anyone’s guess what will happen. This is a very weak quarterback class; in fact, there’s a real possibility that Mendoza will be the only QB selected on Day 1, which is rare in today’s NFL.
Over the last 24 years, there have only been two NFL Drafts where a single QB was picked in the first round: 2022 (Kenny Pickett at No. 20) and 2013 (EJ Manuel at No. 16).
Not only is this class weak on QBs, but it is also full of polarizing prospects and studs who play typically undervalued positions. That means each team’s board may look drastically different, and there could be a ton of surprises tonight as a result.
There are also plenty of trade rumors swirling in the lead-up to the 2026 NFL Draft, as many teams are reportedly looking to move up and down the board. Also, names like Philadelphia Eagles WR A.J. Brown, Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens, Jacksonville Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr., and Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson Sr. are among the veterans who have surfaced in trade rumors.
